From L’Espace:

Come to the installation exhibition of Tran Duc Quy.Over decades of working and innovating, the human being has lost some of its instincts – the sensitive senses for them to cope with disasters and dangers.

“Over decades of working and invention, the human being has invted many equipment to control the nature. However, it also means they have lost some of their senses to cope with disasters and danger. The artist wants to capture these senses in the images of strange creatures with many eyes that walk among us like in a dream…”.
